Abstract
AIMS Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3 (LPCAT3) is known to play a pivotal role in lipid metabolism, but its role in the early brain injury (EBI) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) remains unclear. This study provides insights into LPCAT3 expression alterations and functional implications in EBI following SAH. METHODS SAH models of adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were established by intravascular perforation. Lentivirus vectors were administered by intracerebroventricular injection (i.c.v.) to either induce LPCAT3 overexpression or knockdown 14 days before SAH induction. Western blot, immunofluorescence, Nissl staining, MDA detection, ROS detection, iron content detection, and short-term and long-term neurobehavioral tests were performed to investigate the effects of regulated-LPCAT3 after SAH. RESULTS LPCAT3 levels were found to be significantly elevated in SAH. Suppression of LPCAT3 expression via shRNA improved oxidative stress, reduced brain edema, alleviated behavioral and cognitive deficits following SAH and decreased neuronal death, while upregulating LPCAT3 expression showed opposing effects. CONCLUSION LPCAT3 is involved in SAH-induced EBI and associated with ferroptosis. Our findings provide a referential basis for potential therapeutic interventions aimed at alleviating EBI following SAH.

Abstract
Spontaneous non-aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (NAPMSAH) (addressing point 1) is a relatively rare occurrence in clinical settings as it is rarely misdiagnosed and usually involves a significantly better prognosis than the classical aneurysmal pattern. We hereby focused on a comprehensive analysis of this distinct pathological entity with the purpose of analysing possible pathophysiological entities, outcomes and treatment options involving this diagnosis with a focus on demographical, epidemiological and clinical data. The clinical setting includes focal neurological signs related to the anatomical structures, while computer tomography followed by tomographic angiography are the most common diagnosis tools, with a typical hyperdense lesion involving the midbrain, fourth ventricle and subthalamic areas without an angiographic correspondent, such as an aneurysmal pathology. Further investigations can also be used to highlight this diagnosis, such as interventional angiography or magnetic resonance imaging. Given the rarity of this condition and its relatively better prognosis, treatment options usually remain conservative. In the present review, the main characteristics of NAPMSAH are discussed.

Abstract
Background and purposeAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) predisposes hippocampal injury, a major cause of follow-up cognitive impairment. Our previous study has revealed an abnormal resting-state brain network in patients after the rupture of anterior communicating artery (ACoA) aneurysm. However, the functional connectivity (FC) characteristics of the hippocampus and its relationship with cognitive performance in these patients remain unknown.MethodsThis study ultimately included 26 patients and 19 age- and sex-matched controls who completed quality control for resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The mean time series for each side of the hippocampus was extracted from individuals and then a seed-to-voxel analysis was performed. We compared the difference in FC strength between the two groups and subsequently analyzed the correlations between abnormal FC and their cognitive performance.ResultsThe results of bilateral hippocampus-based FC analysis were largely consistent. Compared with the healthy controls, patients after the rupture of ACoA aneurysm exhibited significantly decreased FC between the hippocampus and other brain structures within the Papez circuit, including bilateral anterior and middle cingulate cortex (MCC), bilateral medial superior frontal gyrus, and left inferior temporal gyrus (ITG). Instead, increased FC between the hippocampus and bilateral insula was observed. Correlation analyses showed that more subjective memory complaints or lower total cognitive scores were associated with decreased connectivity in the hippocampus and several brain regions such as left anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and frontotemporal cortex.ConclusionThese results extend our previous findings and suggest that patients with ruptured ACoA aneurysm exist hypoconnectivity between the hippocampus and multiple brain regions within the Papez circuit. Deactivation of the Papez circuit may be a crucial neural mechanism related to cognitive deficits in patients after the rupture of ACoA aneurysm.

Abstract
Management of gliomas following initial diagnosis requires thoughtful presurgical planning followed by regular imaging to monitor treatment response and survey for new tumor growth. Traditional MR imaging modalities such as T1 post-contrast and T2-weighted sequences have long been a staple of tumor diagnosis, surgical planning, and post-treatment surveillance. While these sequences remain integral in the management of gliomas, advances in imaging techniques have allowed for a more detailed characterization of tumor characteristics. Advanced MR sequences such as perfusion, diffusion, and susceptibility weighted imaging, as well as PET scans have emerged as valuable tools to inform clinical decision making and provide a non-invasive way to help distinguish between tumor recurrence and pseudoprogression. Furthermore, these advances in imaging have extended to the operating room and assist in making surgical resections safer. Nevertheless, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatment continue to make the interpretation of MR changes difficult for glioma patients. As analytics and machine learning techniques improve, radiomics offers the potential to be more quantitative and personalized in the interpretation of imaging data for gliomas. In this review, we describe the role of these newer imaging modalities during the different stages of management for patients with gliomas, focusing on the pre-operative, post-operative, and surveillance periods. Finally, we discuss radiomics as a means of promoting personalized patient care in the future.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is one of the special stroke subtypes with high mortality and mobility. Although the mortality of SAH has decreased by 50% over the past two decades due to advances in neurosurgery and management of neurocritical care, more than 70% of survivors suffer from varying degrees of neurological deficits and cognitive impairments, leaving a heavy burden on individuals, families, and the society. Recent studies have shown that white matter is vulnerable to SAH, and white matter injuries may be one of the causes of long-term neurological deficits caused by SAH. Attention has recently focused on the pivotal role of white matter injury in the pathophysiological processes after SAH, mainly related to mechanical damage caused by increased intracerebral pressure and the metabolic damage induced by blood degradation and hypoxia. In the present review, we sought to summarize the pathophysiology processes and mechanisms of white matter injury after SAH, with a view to providing new strategies for the prevention and treatment of long-term cognitive dysfunction after SAH.

Sleep deprivation aggravates brain injury after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage via TLR4-MyD88 pathway. Aging (Albany NY) 2021; 13:3101-3111.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening cerebrovascular disease, and most of the SAH patients experience sleep deprivation during their hospital stay. It is well-known that sleep deprivation is one of the key components of developing several neurological disorders, but its effect on brain damage after SAH has not been determined. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the effect of sleep deprivation using an experimental SAH model in rats. Induction of sleep deprivation for 24 h aggravated the SAH-induced brain damage, as evidenced by brain edema, neuronal apoptosis and activation of caspase-3. Sleep deprivation also worsened the neurological impairment and cognitive deficits after SAH. The results of immunostaining and western blot showed that sleep deprivation increased the activation of microglial cells. In addition, sleep deprivation differently regulated the expression of anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines. The results of immunofluorescence staining and western blot showed that sleep deprivation markedly increased the activation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88). Mechanically, treatment with the TLR4 inhibitor TAK-242 or the MyD88 inhibitor ST2825 significantly attenuated the brain damage and neuroinflammation induced by sleep deprivation after SAH. In conclusion, our results indicate that sleep deprivation aggravates brain damage and neurological dysfunction following experimental SAH in rats. These effects were mediated by the activation of the TLR4-MyD88 cascades and regulation of neuroinflammation.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a prevalent condition affecting a large portion of the population, many of them still in productive ages. Memory impairment is a common factor amongst those patients. Memory exerts a pivotal role in productivity. That is why it is important to understand how it can be affected in post-aSAH patients. There are certain areas most affected in cases of memory disturbances, as well as its functional connections with crucial cerebral regions. Active research on functional magnetic resonance and diffusion tension imaging is used to identify compromised areas within the brain. There are suggested factors regarding poor performance, such as cerebrospinal fluid drainage and new infarction areas, which should be addressed properly to benefit these patients and simultaneously help them return to a productive and functional life.
